I have tried. in 4.9 it always saved but for some reason MX5 isn't saving it. Maybe Maxthon needs to add a save button for saving changed setting. I notice when I make changes in 4.9 a message is dislpayed that changes were saved. I don't see that message in MX5 which leaves me wondering if they are being saved, so I exit out of settings and come back in to make sure anything I changed is actually saved. Thanks for the reply.

After pasting in the new updated UA, uncheck the box to Use Customized User Agent and then check it again; the settings are saved message will appear at the top of the page

I am still on xp, using Maxthon 4.4.8.200 . I just started having difficulty with gmail, not displaying properly because, it says, browser is out of date. Is there a more updated user agent for xp? Or, would one of those listed above work with xp?? Thanks.

Precisely in the series 5.2, has updated the core from old core 55, so imagine how is the matter :-)

The strange thing is that if you are clicking from a google search to a link, maxthon uses some user agent string, if you reload (even with ctrl+f5) the page opened from a google search, maxthon uses a different user agent string....

How do you know or verify that google uses that string you mention?

Will you refire to look for a page that the user-agent tells you and check it from that same search instead of going directly to the page?

1 -> this string is used if you click from a google search and load the page from there

2 -> this instead gets used if you reload (or ctrl - f5) the page

I do not know, in my case, whether searching from google or loading the page directly, I get the same (v.5.1.7.2000) (if that is what you were referring to)
